A Swaraj India worker has lodged a complaint with the police that Tughlaqabad's Aam Aadmi Party legislator Sahi Ram Pahalwan's nephew and his accomplices assaulted him during the civic body poll on Sunday.
Police said they were investigating the complaint pertaining to voluntarily causing hurt to a person.
Complainant Abhay Kumar, 38, of Tehkhand said he was assaulted by Amit Bidhuri on a petty issue around 11.15 a.m., Deputy Commissioner of Police Romil Baaniya said.
Abhay, who was canvassing for Swaraj India candidate Pooja Jha in Ward number 93 in Tehkhand area, was sent to AIIMS Trauma Centre for medical examination, which suggested a simple blunt injury, the police officer said.
